RoystonFoote'snephew Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 Absolutely superb. Whole team takes a bow but particular mentions must go to young Bakinson who ran our midfield always looking to pass forward and Taylor Moore who was immense. Throughout much of the game it was Moore who handled first Vokes and then the vastly experienced Fletcher while Mawson and Vyner handled the threats of Brown/Campbell and Powell. This new style is not just refreshing but it's exciting. Long may it continue. Absolutely superb.

I've had some of that pie as well So many good performances but I think Bakinson, Moore, and Weimann deserve a shout out and Martin is a bit classy.

maxjak Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 I was out at the seaside today, when i saw our midfield of Pattinson, Weiman and Bakinson, on my mobile, I said ..........we will get overun in midfield, that's terrible selection, and we have no chance of getting anything today. How wrong can u be? Just goes to show how little I know, I need to trust the manager..........the one i said should never get the job. Massive dollops of humble pie consumed.

Has the physical attributes and technical ability to be a top player. He's just needed a chance and now he's had that and is taking it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northern Red Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 I had to rely on Radio Stoke for commentary, who were very complimentary about us on the whole. I got the impression from their commentary that it was very much reminiscent of when teams would come to AG and do a proper job on us and nullify any attacking threat, only with us performing the role of the opposition for a change. To those who watched it, would that be a fair comparison? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mihai Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 I must say, thousands miles away from the game, I was thinking that we can't win against this Stoke team which is a good one, despite their last season. That Bakinson is a potential very good player, and the team looked very solid. If we can manage 4-5 staright wins, we can go for a good half season. Maybe this COVID season will be our season, and next year we will meet at the stadium against Manchester UNITED, Liverpool and others Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Second half they had a bit more of the ball, but were incredibly one dimensional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nibor Posted September 20, 2020 Report Share Posted September 20, 2020 Decent performance, good result. I thought the team managed the game well and Holden used subs intelligently. Thought Martin again was excellent and Bakinson stood out. Stoke were pretty impotent, they battled for 20 minutes first half but they haven't turned any corner just yet and are in for a difficult season. Special mention for the Radio Sjoke commentators who thought they were far away and the best side in the first half when they had 0 shots on target and 38% possession against a side set up with 5 at the back for counter attacking... those are some special glasses.

There is a thread about that. The OP was getting sh1t something fierce for saying it....Love this place! Either way Holden is bringing out the quality we always had in the squad, thus far.....A far cry from what we were getting not that long ago! I am 100% behind Holden for the season!

I thought they were absolutely fair for the most part but still had a flirt with big boy syndrome “with all due respect to Bristol City, we shouldn’t be losing to these!” We were comfortable today with the occasional flash of genius. If this is us after a few games then you can absolutely get excited about the rest of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To those who watched it, would that be a fair comparison? I think it would be unfair to say we did a job on them, I think it was more that Stoke could not match us, which limited what they could do. We were always on the front foot, always looked controlled and mostly had an option. Stoke were mostly in the Warnock style of get the ball into the box as quickly as they could.
